Vibroacoustography for the assessment of total hip arthroplasty [PDF]
This paper proposes imaging with 3-dimensional vibroacoustography for postoperatively assessing the uncovered cup area after total hip arthroplasty as a quantitative criterion to evaluate implant fixation.A phantom with a bone-like structure covered by a tissue-mimicking material was used to simulate a total hip arthroplasty case.
